Finding Fela

When: Wed., Sept. 24, 7:30 p.m. 2014

“Finding Fela” explores the life and work of Nigerian folk singer, Afrobeat innovator, and anti-corruption activist Fela Kuti, who died in 1997 at the age of 58. Born to a women’s rights activist and an influential minister in Nigeria, Fela’s relatively privileged upbringing drew him first towards music, and then politics, as a means of expression.
